Encore Jazz does indeed have his original face, but this time with light blue paint on his visor. On mine, the doors are a little loose, but the worst problem for me is that his missile launcher doesn't want to fit on his back any more!

I had the problem with the missle launcher on both the TFC Jazz and the commemorative Jazz. I did a bit of clipping and filing to fix it.

Thanks for the replies. Glad to hear the face has been fixed, which bugged me more than the loose windows. I'll pick one up in less leaner times then!

Various TF sites are reporting these two will have blue eyes/visors rather than their original colours, for reasons that are a mystery to me. Bit of an annoyance, but I'll take a new Trailbreaker over no Trailbreaker. I could always paint his visor red.
Or these could be e-hobby versions. We'l find out soon enough.

Not having owned Trailbreaker the change doesn't bother me so much on that one, but I do wish they would leave the reissues as accurate as possible, rather than making these "improvements" Karl |

Well it's about time! We knew the Eject/Rewind mould was still knocking about after Flipsides and the eHobby chaps. Nice to see them decked out in their 'classic' colour schemes at last.
And Ravage and Laserbeak! Again! That's the third release for Ravage and fourth for Laserbeak by my count, but the first sans-Soundwave outing in those colours. Good news for new fans and those who missed earlier releases. Those who didn't will have to start giving away their extras, go into custom-making or just start building a cassette clone army.

Ooh, cassettes! But, aw, I've got those already. Still, it might improve the chances of seeing other cassettes. (Crosses fingers.)
Does it strike anybody else that the team names and characters for the Legends might be all mixed up?

Very happy to see Ravage get another outing: a character I have long wished to have in toy form. The Soundblaster re-issue which includes him has always been a bit too pricey for me.
Hurray!

I have to say that the Cassettes are rather tempting. I have the blue Condor and Ravage releases, but I lack a version in the correct colours so I could be tempted.
Not sure what I would do with Rewind and Eject since my Blaster has departed my collection mind you...

The chrome on my original Rewind and Eject is pretty much worn away, so I'll be glad to replace them. From those pictures it looks like they have new cassette details printed on them as well.
Karl, your unaligned tapes could be Metal Position Bounty Hunters.
Sigh. I miss cassettes.

I think I'll be repainting Trailbreaker's visor the proper colour when I get one. -Ralph If and when I acquire myself a Trailbreaker I think I shall probably be doing much the same. He is in need of a bit of colour correction there. Karl |

Actually, no, do a Generation 2 version. Just for fun.
